--- Quote from: Insert Name Here² on May 22, 2017, 08:43:08 AM ---Depending on the place you get it, the bloatware varies. Also if it's an HDD not an SSD, no duh it'll take a while to boot lmao Also this is a sub 400 dollar laptop, which aren't known for blazing speed and booting up in seconds like you're expecting. --- End quote --- if the hard drive isn't a total piece of trash it'll boot in less then a minute if it is trash that can't do 4kb reading better then a sd card it'll be about 2-3 minutes not anywhere near 5 minutes. this is on mediocre hardware too, i have a desktop decked out in a solid amd athlon x2 first generation, on a 320 GB HDD with 4gb of ram and topped off with the bios being incompatible with fast boot mode on windows 10. it still boots in about a minute. this is nowhere near modern hardware. |

i used to have this program i found for an hp i had that detected bloatware and removed it. can't remember what it was called though. --- Quote from: Placid on May 22, 2017, 12:44:43 AM ---OP, to be honest, I wouldn't invest too heavily into making sure the laptop can game, because believe it or not once you hit college your life's gonna kick into overdrive. last year i bought a laptop that could handle gaming and the only times i've gamed on it have been bad times (i.e. finals week, 8 hours before a string of 3 exams) or while i'm at home and too lazy to boot up desktop. especially if you have a ps4 that you can use to play aaa games, don't give yourself the temptation of staying up all night / staying at your dorm/wherever you'll be instead of going out and doing stuff with people you meet. idk, just my 2 cents i guess --- End quote --- i'm not a social person. i would rather stay home and play games than hanging out at bars/whatever. that's why i want the laptop for gaming too-- it's portable. |
